Aquaculture culture of aquatic organisms including aquatic vegetations under controlled conditions which are now recognized as a viable and profitable farming or enterprise worldwise. As aquaculture technology has evolved, the push toward higher yields and faster growth has involved the enhancement or replacement of natural foods with prepared diets. In aqua feed preparation and usage, today, proximate analysis of feeds and feed ingredients play a major role in deciding quality and nutrients requirements. To assure good feed quality, feed ingredients and finished feeds need to be monitored closely. Therefore quality control physical chemical, biological and microbiological involves the verification of quality standard established for each ingredient though the process of feed manufacturing and continues as they finally go in to storage as finished feeds. There are important major areas of interest in which 42 chapters are included. This practical book aims for a better understanding of evaluation of aqua feeds and feed formulation methods with examples. This practical book is a guide for anyone who interested in areas of quality control of aqua feeds and student communities in particular. Artikel-Nr. 113070
